I picked up the game on the Summer Sale, so I've only ever had 1.7, but had all these weird memories of things to do from watching older videos that now are bad. This helped a lot. I had just tried Japan before watching and did not know the thing about Armies. The Shogonate just game overed me when they revolted. Now I know better.

[@LudietHistoria]

Thanks for the sub kind sir! If you want warmonger Japan, go colonial exploitation fast, pick on Gaza in south africa and the yemen minors first, then once u got exploitation passed go into the congo area and niger area and eat all the africans there. That will give you the pops needed so that when you reform you are strong enough to take on the great powers

It's actually funny, turns out that when Pdox tried to make Japan more isolationist and left alone, the way they did it made Japan the *only* power most AI nations will try and curry favor with.

[@kaltaron1284]

Love me some Japan run. Esp. for explaining stuff, being isolated at the start is a good thing but Japan also has the ability to do stuff and eventually become very successful. IIRC Romanticism is also needed for Greener Gras Campaign which can be very useful to populate regions like Hokkaidou or your main production centers. Once people are allowed to move of course. Switching from Traditionalism doesn't give you +25% taxation. It removes the -25% modifier. So you go from 75% to 100% which is a 33 1/3% increase or just 1/3. Can someone explain to me why the Emperor is smoking pipe? I mean if you ignore the tiny country called Russia, you are basically neighbours with the Swedes.

[@MsPysoul]

well great. Every time Shogunate revolts, Russia joins their side and just mopes my units to the ground great game

Dont go agrarianism,better to go interventionalism then Laissez-Faire.Agrarianism has −25% Capitalists investment pool contribution efficiency which is ruining your most efficient pops(cuz farmers contribute 5% while industrialist are 20%).Agrarianism cant build any manufacturing in the private queue etc. The same thing with homesteading. Its way harder to pull down the rural folk party clout with homesteading than pulling down the landowners clout with tenant farmers. PS: Qing can go agrarianism cuz of they have too many ppl so u get more investment pool contribution that way.

[@LudietHistoria]

Well gee thanks bro. I know what you're saying but as Japan you can't go interventionalism first. You HAVE TO go homesteading and agrarianism as those are the only 2 options. You ofc should later change to interventionalism and commercialized, but it's impossible to go straight for those at the starts.

@@LudietHistoria Meiji fanboy crying over the disappearance of the man with early restoration?

[@blackangel_925]

@@LudietHistoria Because a lot of newer Japan players tend to think that faster=better for the Restoration JE, and that's just not the case. The main reason you do the Restoration in the first place is to get a better leader with a better IG. Because of the political laws that Japan starts with, (Monarchy+Autocracy) it is IMMENSELY difficult to form any sort of legitimate government if the leader's IG isn't in power. And because the leader is a landowner, and you want to industrialize and actively pass laws that they dislike, that's a problem. Triggering the Restoration too early replaces the landowner Shogun with Emperor Ninko, who is ALSO landowner, which means you don't actually change the political situation at all, and now you're right back where you started; with laws that make it impossible to form a government because of your leader IG. So, the optimal move is to wait until I think 1852 so that you get Komei instead, who is an armed forces leader. Which isn't fantastic, but its WAY better than a landowner leader. Honestly it's really dumb that it's designed this way, because it feels like the game actively punishes you for doing well and finishing the Journal Entry quickly. But with how the event is currently coded, it is actively better to sit and wait until you can get Komei to complete it. (edited for spelling)

I don’t think you are appreciating the depth of the economy in Victoria 3. Local prices affect the SoL. Each state is its own economy and to optimise you want to take care of your pops locally. If you aren’t producing the goods they need locally they have to pay an increased amount. Each state needs to be self sustaining as much as possible if you get the balance right SoL is much higher and bottom up growth.

[@Njordin2010]

This.

[@foxdavion6865]

Keep in mind guys, just like with Muscovy in EU4; Japan is *fine* at the start, but there is a nasty crisis waiting for you in the mid game if you don't take action to prevent it triggering in the mid game by your actions in the early game. If you don't industrialise, reform and put the Emperor on the throne (OR just Anyone in charge, so long as it isn't the Shogun and his lackies) and open up trade early, you'll get an event half way through the game timeline where the Americans show up and forcibly change your trade policy to an open one, if you haven't reformed by then, it triggers a crisis tick down to a civil war, alongside massive debuffs and low stability. If your trade is open by the mid game, the event won't fire at all. (This event is new, it was added this patch). Japan itself also has few industrial resources, the quality of the metals are poor and no oil, with limited coal. This will become an issue in the late game of Vic3, this will force you to either take the historic path of Japan or you will need to be very clever with your trade deals to make sure you can secure these resources.

[@IgnasV]

I stayed isolationist up until the 80s. 200 mines of coal should be enough. There's also like 300 iron mines too. Oil is super limited tho.

[@huynhvonhatan]

Since 1.5 or 1.6 any western powers will knock on your door to open free trade around 1870s. In the current 1.7 however I got England to come by as early as 1940s. Possibly as the result of expanding iron mines and construction sector and liberalizing too early. As a note though, it seems you can reliably get market liberal instigator for landowner very early due to the Java eruption in the 40s. If you keep your rice price high enough, people will piss off and demand change and a new political instigator will appear and you can appoint him to lead the land owner. Though I can’t keep him alive long enough to get all the change I want, he’ll mysterious die after a year or two. You can also avoid being demand to open up by getting friendly with France and England at game start. They will get extremely friendly with you for some reasons, even Scandinavia.
